Question

For the direct variation equation Y equals 2 2/3 X was the constant support personality

Answer 1

In the direct variation equation \( Y = \frac{8}{3} X \) (where \( 2 \frac{2}{3} \) is converted to an improper fraction), the constant of variation (also known as the constant of proportionality) is the coefficient of \( X \).

In this case, the constant of variation is \( \frac{8}{3} \).

This means that for every unit increase in \( X \), \( Y \) increases by \( \frac{8}{3} \) units.
